Chrysler 2010 Sebring Convertible - User Guide - Manual (Page 12)

WARNING!
• In a collision, an unrestrained child, even a tiny baby, can become a projectile
inside the vehicle. The force required to hold even an infant on your lap could
become so great that you could not hold the child, no matter how strong you
are. The child and others could be badly injured. Any child riding in your vehicle
should be in a proper restraint for the child’s size.
• Rearward-facing child seats must NEVER be used in the front seat of a vehicle
with a front passenger airbag. An airbag deployment could cause severe injury
or death to infants in this position.
Installing The LATCH - Compatible Child Restraint System
• Your vehicle’s second row passenger seats are equipped with the child restraint
anchorage system called LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and Tether for
CHildren.
• The two rear seating positions have lower anchorages that are capable of
accommodating LATCH-compatible child seats having flexible, webbing mounted
lower attachments or fixed lower attachments.
• The rear seat lower anchorages are round
bars, located at the rear of the seat
cushion where it meets the seatback. They
are just visible when you lean into the rear
seat to install the child restraint. You will
easily feel them if you run your finger
along the intersection of the seatback and
seat cushion surfaces.
• The top tether strap anchorages are located in the trunk behind the rear seatback.
The access ports to the top tether anchorages are directly behind the seat
headrests under a plastic cover.
• Loosen the adjusters on the lower straps and tether straps so that you can attach
the hook or connector to the lower and tether anchorages more easily.
• Attach the lower hooks or connectors over the top of the seat cover material.
• If lowered, raise the convertible top.
NOTE: The convertible top must be in the UP position to access the tether anchor.
• Open the access port cover behind the seat where you are placing the child
restraint.
